A member asked:
What would an abdominal ct scan show that would not be seen on ultrasound of the liver/gallbladder/pancreas? my ultrasound was normal & doc wants ct.

More: The ct looks at more things in a different way than the us. Depending on your symptoms, it is just another way to evaluate for the cause of your problems.
